"Xanax" is another woozy headrush from clandestine hitmaker Elohim

Los Angeles' Elohim has unveiled her second track, "Xanax", taken from her debut 7".
Following May's startlingly magnificent snark-pop of "She Talks Too Much", Elohim demonstrates her softer side with "Xanax". It flutters across trap-lite rattles, with warped vocal samples and woodwind chirrups, oozing out the speakers like the death song of the opium addict caterpillar in Alice In Wonderland. It's a track so dreamy it's on the verge of comatose.
"She Talks Too Much"/"Xanax" is out tomorrow (24 July) by B3SCI.
Listen to "Xanax" below.
